I was smiling at the end, but only because I'd climbed off the beast. :hide: Andrea, you did beautifully! But you're exactly right on the icy hot. My rear ached for DAYS after that. How did people in the olden days do it? :wtf: Thanks, Kira! You were the pro, though. :cheer: Thanks, Kathy! I don't go anywhere without my shades. :D Fedora, I don't plan to ever be that near a horse again. :violin: Kimberly, bless her heart, preserved the single happy memory on her camera, thank goodness. As for the hat, urchin wasn't the look I was going for. I wouldn't have wanted to paid forty pounds for "urchin." :mrgreen: Jen, the moment definitely didn’t last.

Kimberly, bless her heart, preserved the single happy memory on her camera, thank goodness. As for the hat, urchin wasn’t the look I was going for. I wouldn’t have wanted to paid forty pounds for “urchin.”

The cursing hadn't yet begun. And she did try on a multitude of hats...I guess I shouldn't have told her that the one she loved was rather "street urchin." She looked cute--just kinda like a clean urchin from Dickens... Y’all, Rhonda had only been on the horse for mere moments when I snapped this photo. The cursing hadn’t yet begun.

Cue the song, "What's it all about, Alphie?" Apparently, the man Alphie had a mind of his own too. :wink: Perhaps they're related? You look fabulous, Rhonda! You have the entire horseback riding ensamble down. And the sunglasses are a total :thumbup: Sounds like Alphie is aptly named.

Not me, sister. Just looking at a horse is as close as I wish to be to one. Have a terrific Tuesday. At least you are willing to get on a horse and look good to boot. Not me, sister.

And you can say you did it, right? Cross the life experience off your list and move onto the next thing. Myself, I did ok, but if I ever get transported back in time where I have to ride across the countryside for days without the benefit of icy/hot - I'm screwed. :hide: At least you have evidence of the one perfect, glorious moment with Alphie before it all went to hell.

And I'm amazed -- it must have been the singular odd moment upon the horse's back when you weren't screaming and swearing. :twisted: Princess, the disgusting fact is you can wear anything and look cute!
